Chapter 1: A Visit to Berk

It was a simple day at the Dragon's Edge. Hiccup and Fishlegs were in the clubhouse going over the Book of Dragons and the Dragon's Eye notes with Toothless and Meatlug by their sides.

Astrid was training with Stormfly on their training grounds. Ruffnut and Tuffnut were playing bat the nut with Barf and Belch, and Snotlout was being lazy with Hookfang. "I still can't believe we got to see a Sea Shocker up close." said Fishlegs, as he added notes about the dragon to the book.

"Me either, I never thought I'd see one in person, you know since they're deep sea dragons." said Hiccup. Just then a green Terrible Terror carrying a note attached to his leg flew in. "Hey, Terror mail." said Hiccup, letting the dragon land on him arm.

He untied the message, and opened it up. "Who's it from?" asked Fishlegs. "It's from my dad. Better gather the others." said Hiccup. Fishlegs and Hiccup hopped on their dragons and flew to where the others were.

After getting their attention, Hiccup read the message. "Dear son, in honor to celebrate getting our gold back and a plentiful harvest here on Berk, we've decided to have festival. And since no festival would be complete with you all you're all invited." Hiccup read.

"A party?" asked Ruffnut. "Awesome." said Tuffnut. "It'd be nice to go back to Berk." said Astrid. "We should definitely go." said Snotlout. "It does sound fun, but I don't know." said Hiccup. "What's not to know?" asked Fishlegs.

"Guys, Viggo is still out there." Hiccup replied. "The Edge will be perfectly fine, we have a good defense wall, whenever you leave the Edge you take the Dragon Eye with you." reasoned Astrid.

"Well...I suppose it would be okay. I mean the Edge would be safe, it'll only be for a couple of days, and we could use a break. Okay, we'll go." said Hiccup. The others cheered, and went to their huts to start packing.


The next morning, after making sure their defenses were secure the riders flew back to their home island. On Berk the auxiliary riders were keeping a look out. Gustav was patrolling on his Monstrous Nightmare, Fanghook when he saw the riders coming his way.

"Look, they're here." he said. They were greeted by the auxiliary riders, and landed in Berk's plaza. The Berkians gathered around to welcome them, as they got off their winged companions. "Hey, Dad." said Hiccup, when he saw his father.

"Hello, son. So good to see you." said Stoick, giving his son a bone crushing hug. "Uh, Dad, you're crushing me." said Hiccup in a strained voice. "Sorry." said Stoick putting him down. After regaining his breath, Hiccup looked around.

The people were setting up lanterns and tables for the festival. "The place is starting to look great." said Hiccup. "Thanks, son. The festival starts at sundown." said Stoick. "It's gonna be a real extravaganza." said Gobber.

When the sun started to go down, everyone came out of their homes and gathered in the plaza. They placed food on the tables, music was playing, and all the people and dragons were having a great time.

Hiccup and Toothless walked around, and looked at everyone having a good time. "Hello, Hiccup." said a voice. Hiccup looked to his left, and saw Fishlegs and his mom Mrs. Ingerman. "Hey, Mrs. Ingerman." said Hiccup.

"Would you like a crab cake?" asked Mrs. Ingerman, offering him a tray of crab cakes. "Sure, thanks." said Hiccup, taking one. "No one makes crab cakes like you, Mom." said Fishlegs. "Thanks, honey." said Mrs. Ingerman.

As Hiccup walked on, he looked back at Fishlegs and his mom. Then he heard Ruffnut and Tuffnut arguing. "Ruff, Tuff do I have to do what I did when you fought as kids?" asked Mrs. Thorston, pulling the two apart.

"Yeah do it, Mom." said Tuffnut. "Do it." added Ruffnut. And with that Mrs. Thorston rammed their heads together as hard as she could. "Thanks, Mom, we needed that." said Tuffnut. When the scene was over, Hiccup kept walking on.

A while later, he sat down for a rest when he overheard Snotlout. On the side of a house, he saw Snotlout talking with his mother. "I really missed your hugs, Mom." said Snotlout. "So have I sweetie, but it feels so good to get one now." said Mrs. Jorgenson.

Seeing the scene made Hiccup feel a bit sad, but kept a smile on his face for the festival. "Hey, Hiccup." said Astrid, coming over with her mom. "Hey, Astrid, Mrs. Hofferson." greeted Hiccup. "Astrid was just telling me of all you've done on the Edge." said Mrs. Hofferson.

"Yeah, battling dragon hunters and taming dragons, Astrid's a great person to have with us." said Hiccup. "Yes, your father and I couldn't be prouder, Astrid." said Mrs. Hofferson. "Thanks, Mom. I get my warrior flair from you." said Astrid.

Once again, Hiccup felt a twinge of sadness. Later that night, when the festival ended, Hiccup went home with his dad. Up in his old room, he saw the little stuffed dragon toy at the frame of his bed.

He sat on his bed, and held the toy in his hands. The toy had been a present from his late mother, and it was all Hiccup had of her. He started thinking about how lucky his friends were to have their mothers.

Someone to cook for them, look out for them, give them hugs, and tell them that they were proud of them. Granted his dad did that in the past and more of those things now, but he wished he had his mother.

Toothless sensed his rider's mood, and nuzzled him to cheer him up. "Hey, I'm okay bud. It's like Dad says, my mother would probably be proud to see me now." said Hiccup, as he walked over to his window, and looked at the clear night sky.
